Default Attn: Michael - Motorola V6 Mobile Phone

I seem to recall that you made some comments about the Motorola V6. I've
been reading up on some peoples' comments on Whirlpool. But what specific
issues did you have with this phone?

I see a few Ebayers flogging them for around the $200 mark, some a bit
lower, some higher than what the pre-paid packages that Telstra, Big W,
etc. are flogging them for (tell 'im 'es dreamin' comes to mind).

The specs seem a bit better than the V3 what with a 2mp camera, etc.

Just wondering if it's a viable alternative to the V3 or V9 NextG models.

The main specific reason that would've caused issues is that Michael was
the one using it.

Let me be fair first - it was a second hand phone given to me from a manager
who was given the arse. Maybe it was cursed.

issues
- star key hardly ever worked
- calls often echoed
- calls often dropped off

replaced it with a Nok E51 (new) and all is well

The manager in question wasn't sacked for mimicking his boss then hanging up
on him,was he?

No.

He was another one of those high-level managers who are suddenly "here one
day, gone the next"

As in "quit, or we will fire you"
